SOURCE: Brother PE-150V bobbin thread

For embroidery, and zig-zag, and because the needle makes side movements, it needs more needle thread.
So try to keep you needle thread not very tight,
and tight up your bobbin case tension more, so that the two threads meet under the meterial.

SOURCE: Singer Featherweight tension assembly

Putting this back together is a thirty second job if you have done it a hundred times. If you have never done it but have mechanical aptitude, it may be a challenge.

Whatever you do, don't bend the check spring out of shape!

Below is a link to the Singer site with the schematic for reassembly. When placing the check spring back in place, place it in about the 6 o'clock position with no tension so that it has a fair amount of check before pulling it up in place..

When setting the tension, at a setting of "1" the tension disks should just be slightly compressing the beehive spring. "0" is almost no tension at all. Normal sewing is 5.

Get all of the parts together and push in the cup with the numbers while screwing on the knurled nut taking care to get the pin in one of the holes.

Janome 6500 Sewing Machine. CORRECT TENSION ON 6500 JANOME SEW MACHINE please.

Question edited for clarity.
Please don't type in all CAPS, it is considered SHOUTING and is harder to read.

Sewing machine tension is a delicate tug of war between the bottom Bobbin tension and the Upper tension to put the loop between the 2 layers of fabric. You set the Bobbin tension first and the the top tension depends on the fabric and the thread used.

Your Bobbin tension is very very loose to be not tensioning at all or the top tension is too loose.

How do you fix a left of center needle on a Morse Apollo 6500 sewing machine?

Is this machine new to you? Some of the older (but goodie) machines have a needle that defaults to the left. (I have an old Nelco that has this--great machine, just takes getting used to sewing with the needle in that position.)

Otherwise, I suspect the machine needs a thorough cleaning and oiling because the old oil may have dried out and is causing it to seize.

The thread tensioner doesn't slacken off

fit the discs with curved faces together and beehive spring, have someone pull a piece of thread between the discs as you apply pressure on the spring. obviously it should be harder to pull the thread the more pressure there is on the spring. If the tensioner works this way then you have an assembly problem. consult your manual or send me details, make, model # of your machine.

Thread snagging on shuttle

My first guess is a tension problem, my second guess is you could be using cheap thread. Sewing machines don't like cheap thread. But check out your tension first.
